Label It

The test is not adhesion on day one but whether the label is still legible after a term of washing. Iron-on and sew-in options belong on clothing; dishwasher-safe vinyl belongs on drink bottles and lunch boxes. Apply to a clean dry surface and let the adhesive cure before the first wash. Order early, since school terms bunch demand. See multipurpose labels, student stationery and label supplies.
